I can't say enough good things about this system. It came well packaged. It was easy to setup and use. The video quality is great. The night vision is amazing. It is well worth the money if you need a small affordable system for your home. I will be buying more EZVIZ products in the future, for sure.
UPDATE 3.8.2018
This system was delivered on 12/22. On 3/2 the night vision went out in one of the cameras and it goes in and out on another. I was expecting at least a 90 days warranty from the seller. They only offer a 30 day warranty which seems wholly inadequate in my opinion. Fortunately the manufacture warranty is a year. If that matters to you like it does to me then get these cameras from a seller that offeres a better warranty.
***This review is for the 720P product w/analog cameras*** Can't give less than 5 stars, at least as a first impressions review. Product was EXTREMELY well packaged. Everything has a quality feel to it--in all honesty, at this price point I was not sure what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised. The installation was straightforward enough. I setup the DVR base unit somewhat centrally and had enough cabling to run to the four cameras where I wanted them. Obviously, if you want to conceal your cabling then it will, and did in my case, take some time to drill holes up through header or down through sill plates and fish the cable through wall voids, but in the long run it will be worth it to do it right. Only potential "gotcha" in the installation process is that the power component of each cable has a male and female side. Make sure you run the right end of the cable to the camera!!! On my first, I did not and learned the hard way after having to pull the cable out and re-fish it the right way. Logging into the DVR and the EzViz Android app was easy enough. Everything is intuitive, and for me I actually appreciate the interface. This is an early review, so keep that in mind, but so far I am VERY happy with the quality and the video quality is very good as well. I went w/the 720P and it is PLENTY of resolution for my purposes.
This has been a great addition to our home business. Nice to have the added security and the ability to watch our machines working in our shop while we are in our office. They were easy to hook up, other than having to climb into the attic to run the lines. We can watch all 4 screens at once on the TV that it is connected to, focus on one camera at a time, or have a full screen that rotates between them. The clarity is great, day or night. Would definitely recommend.
No notifications / alerts although all cams are enabled. Will update my review if this is solved or may return.
I found the DST option, turned it on now that little irritation is fixed. Enabled the movement detect zone for one camera, still no notifications on my IPhone. There are options to set on the main HD with the mouse and options on the phone App. Video is very clear, tried the App viewing the cameras with phone on WIFI and cellular, and it works fine. Now get the alerts working and I will be happy with this purchase. My alert notifications are all set on the IPhone. Ok, after making contact via the chat option the motion detect complaint is resolved. I was directed to a link where I logged in and downloaded a firmware update onto my desktop compute. The file was in a zipped format, unzip and put on a thumb drive and then plug into the spare USB port on the hard drive of the ezviz unit. Then do s manual update. Will be happy to give more information if needed. Everything works as advertised now.
This system is without a doubt best bang for your buck in its price range. The set-up is easy as long as you're comfortable drilling pilot holes and hanging wire. The resolution is as advertised and I haven't had any problems with the app.
The only knock against this product are the incomplete instructions included in the package. However, if you have to contact support they are great at working through any issues during set-up and making sure it all works correctly. Fantastic customer service provided throughout the set-up.
The very low price for a 4-camera system seems to be worth the value in this case.

Easy installation and connected seamlessly to my android lg g3. Picture is pretty good and cameras have a nice wide angle. Motion sensor works well. Almost everything you would want the system to be.
Cons Mounting systems are super cheap.
Easy to set up, straight forward. APP is easy to use, and works flawlessly. 720P is good enough quality, can opt for 1080p if desired.
Great quality for the price. Picture is clear have the hooked up to a 32" tv really like the app that i can watch my cameras anywhere. and that i can make clips and download them onto a scan disk. very happy with my purchase would recommend to anyone the wires and not hard to install drilled one hole for all four cameras.
Works great! Funtions properly online and offline. Not many problems with it except when i'm using playback it will freeze up and restart the system sometimes. Has given me Great peace of mind!
awsome camera system, but the app needs work.
